Title: Time Is Money
1Time is Money
Save Yours With A Jet Charter
2The Big Picture
Although private jet travel is commonly
associated with executive excess, the truth is
that when weighed against other costs, chartering
a private jet is a cost effective option for
managing high-value employees time. Private air
gets employees to their destinations faster and
allows them to continue to connect with clients
and other staff and complete projects while they
travel.
3Your Greatest Investment
Your high value employees represent one of your
companys biggest investments. Providing them
with optimum working conditions will greatly
improve their work product, and consequently, the
overall well-being of your company. According to
Business Travel News, corporate travel managers
report that business travel has a positive impact
on employee health and can be positive for
productivity. Getting the fastest most convenient
travel possible will help boost these benefits.
4Getting There Fast
Private air travel is much faster than commercial
air travel by almost every metric imaginable.
Instead of having to drive to a large hub, you
can take a private jet from your local airport.
Instead of dealing with tedious onboarding
routines, private air passengers can quickly
board their charter jet. Private air can also
take passengers to the airport most convenient to
their final destination.
5Hassle-Free Air Travel
Distractions can impact you and your staffs
ability to focus on upcoming presentations, work
or other important events. Commercial air travel
has distractions galore crying babies, delays
and a cumbersome boarding and deplaning process.
Private air makes travel easy and hassle-free,
allowing you and your staff to stay focused on
your mission.
6In-Air Productivity
Many business travelers rave about the work they
can accomplish while flying private air.
According to a 2009 National Business Aviation
Association, travelers said they were 20 percent
more productive onboard company aircraft than
they were in the office. Commercial travelers
reported a 40 percent drop in their ability to
get work done.
7When It Matters
Private air travel is more customer-centered than
traditional commercial air travel. While
commercial air has set schedules, private air
schedules transportation to meet client needs.
When it is absolutely critical to get your people
to a location, you cant afford to be at the
mercy of commercial schedules. Private air gets
your people where they need to be when they need
to be there.
8A Simple Formula
- Add up the salaries of the number of people
traveling and divide by the number of hours
theyll be traveling via a private jet. - Make the same calculation for the hours your
staff would travel via commercial air. - Remember that on average commercial air includes
15 minutes to park, 90 minutes to check-in and 45
minutes to get off the plane, pick up luggage and
pick up a rental car, while private air takes
just 5 minutes to park, 5 minutes to board and 5
minutes to deplane. - Also take into consideration that on many private
flights, staff will be able to continue to work
on various projects in the air. - When you take these factors into consideration,
youll often find that private air produces net
savings in productivity.
